Requiem for the Massacre With RJ Young in Conversation With Ben Montgomery
ABOUT THE BOOK
More than one hundred years ago, the city of Tulsa, Oklahoma perpetrated a massacre against its Black residents. For generations, the true story was ignored, covered up, and diminished by those in power and in a position to preserve a racist status quo. Blending memoir and immersive journalism, RJ Young shows how today Tulsa combats its racist past while still remaining all too tolerant of racial injustice. A collage of Black lives one hundred years after the massacre shows how things have changed and how they have not. Requiem for the Massacre includes interviews from survivors of the massacre and their descendants, as well as research from historical archives at the Greenwood Cultural Center, the University of Tulsa, and other sources, culminating in current efforts to excavate an empty sunken patch of land believed to be the site of an unmarked mass grave of victims of the massacre. As the United States is in the throes of Black Lives Matter demonstrations spurned by the killing of George Floyd, and as Tulsa heads into the next one hundred years, Young”s own reflections thread together the stories of a community trying to heal and trying to hope.

Wow Tnx bro good
TNX GOOD brother
I love this interview. Watching 2 very successful entrepreneurs with totally different personality styles: Daymond so cool and Ryan so hyped and enthusiastic just shows that Big Money Energy success comes in different flavors!! Yum!!💕 My other big takeaways from this were:: Own yourself and your time. Schedule it. Just put yourself out there. Read more.😊 Great as usual... Thank so much!!!
Good day Sir Ryan . Big Money Energy means having a positive influence on everything and every one in my life. Its awesomely important to me. Much appreciated Sir. KD Moore Trinidad
BME is one of the best self help books i've read in a while. Think and Grow Rich and Rich Dad Poor Dad are a different type of animal. But, BME should be read prior to those and OH MAN, it has the potential to change your life! Control your energy and everything MUST change!
I'm Wayne Diaspia from Trinidad 🇹🇹. Big money energy is that fuel that we all have but needs to be put into work. Ignoring the average voice and going down deep within ourselves to find that true person within ourselves.... I'll like to know what's that drink lol it's attractive lol and I love blue lol.
I've opened a bookstore in 7 days. From bare walls to the first sale, 7 days exactly.
Really? I’m looking for how to get started.
Really cool to be able to to watch these kinds of videos in the early morning hours to get the BIG MONEY ENERGY going. Being from a small, low frequency town tucked away in Wyoming and pushing away from that life to go achieve anything you put your mind to if you change your thinking and hard wiring of the brain. Big money energy gives me energy to push into any city and show that I’m as confident as the ones already at the top! Traveling the world protecting families with my truck and camper. Great stuff, love the content
I am Lisa from Irving, TX. My definition of "Big money energy" is based on Quantum Physics - the "Law of Attraction" - "like attracts like". The frequency (or emotions) in which I vibrate from is what I will attract. So based on those theories, to attract big money, you must believe in your worth and the worth of your product or service. Also, energy transfers. "The energy we give, is the energy we receive."
Ryan’s everywhere
Time is an illusion
Big money energy is high vibe as you sad this people are shining it through
I’m from Ankeny Iowa. Born in Des Moines Iowa. Big money energy means to me peace. That’s it in s nutshell. I create my peace. The noise will not affect me, not really. I’d been to New York. Nothing like the energy there. Would absolutely love to see behind the scenes of your Real Estate life there. 😍
Your sound is Terrible
I am Diana. Commercial Real Estate specialist in Dubai ..Love this city . your videos are so natural, encouraging looking forward to read your book . Big Money is really somethings that brings out yourself and when one reaches to their highest level and successfully they tend to contribute to the well being of others .
Heyy
Would love to chat , currently Dubai real estste market is very dynamic specially new construction for waterfront, golf and beach properties.
Hey I am from Colorado Springs, Colorado. Big money energy means to me. The ability to flow and shape like water. To be able to energize and uplift any situation. To be able to control your emotions no matter what day of the week, so that you never leave your energetic wellbeing to chance. And never leave your life to chance!
Great talk!
It is huge! Very B&N-ish. I prefer smaller quaint shops.
